Circle Pay App: Send Money Like a Text

This past week in Boston has been below zero degress with windchill, which is the lowest it's been since the 1920's! Luckily I've been hunkered down and playing with the new Circle Pay App. It's similar to Venmo, but has great features like instant cash out (without fees) and no foreign transaction fees. You send money like a text, and can even have group chats with up to 20 friends complete with emojis and gifs to make transactions way more fun!

We tested out Circle Pay by splitting a delicious dinner with blogger babes at Townsman in Boston. We set up a group chat within the app between everyone attending the dinner. Not only was it easy to split the bill and request/pay each other, but it was fun to text and send gifs about how great the meal was and how full we all were after the event!

Mmmm - comforting butternut squash soup.

Cranberry pear crisp for dessert - happy camper over here!

Circle Pay is such a game changer! It makes it super fun to be able to text and send gifs in the same app as where you send money. It's alsoperfect for traveling or events where you need to split bills between up to 20 people. Plus, you can cash out instantly and avoid foreign transaction fees! All deposits held in Circle Pay are FDIC insured up to $250k so you know it's secure, and none of your transactions are published to the public so your money is your business.
